(OPERATIONS) AND OTHER REQUIRED COURSE WORK.

2. MAINTAIN A CUMULATIVE AVERAGE ATTENDANCE LEVEL OF AT LEAST TWO-THIRDS (2/3) OF THE

SCHEDULED HOURS INDICATED ON THEIR ENROLLMENT CONTRACT. FOR EXAMPLE, A STUDENT SCHEDULED

TO COMPLETE 30 HOURS PER WEEK WOULD HAVE TO MAINTAIN AN AVERAGE WEEKLY ATTENDANCE OF AT

LEAST 20 HOUR PER WEEK (1/3 X 30 =20). MAINTAIN A CUMULATIVE ATTENDANCE AVERAGE OF 67%

REGARDLESS OF THE AVERAGE LEVEL OF ATTENDANCE, STUDENTS WHO HAVE MORE THAN THREE

CONSECUTIVE WEEKS OF ABSENCES, (21 CLASS DAYS) WILL BE DISMISSED. THIS STANDARD SHALL APPLY TO

ALL STUDENTS EXCEPT THOSE ON AN APPROVED EXCUSED OF ABSENCE (SEE EXCUSED ABSENCE POLICY).

STUDENTS WHO EXPECT TO BE ABSENT 7 OR MORE DAYS UP TO 21 DAYS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REQUEST

AN EXCUSED ABSENCE. AN EXCUSED LEAVE OF ABSENCE MAY EXTEND THE STUDENT’S CONTRACT PERIOD

AND MAXIMUM TIME FRAME BY THE SAME NUMBER OF DAYS IN THE LEAVE OF ABSENCE.

IN ADDITION TO ATTENDANCE STANDARDS RELATING TO SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS (SAP),

STUDENTS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO ADHERE TO CERTAIN OTHER GENERAL INSTITUTIONAL POLICIES

RELATING TO ATTENDANCE AND TARDINESS. THESE POLICIES ARE OUTLINED IN ATTENDANCE POLICY IN

THIS CATALOG.

3. COMPLETE THE COURSE WITHIN THE MAXIMUM TIME FRAME WHICH WOULD BE 150% IN OTHER WORDS

ONE AND ONE-HALF (1-1/2) TIMES THE LENGTH OF THE COURSE AS DEFINED IN THE ENROLLMENT

AGREEMENT. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE STUDENT HAS CONTRACTED TO COMPLETE THE COURSE WITHIN 40

WEEKS, HE OR SHE MUST COMPLETE WITHIN 60 WEEKS.

4. STUDENTS MUST MEET MINIMUM ACADEMIC AND ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR AT LEAST ONE

EVALUATION PRIOR TO THE MIDPOINT (50%) OF THE COURSE TO BE CONSIDERED AS MEETING

SATISFACTORY PROGRESS AT THE END OF AN EVALUATION PERIOD WILL BE CONSIDERED TO BE MAKING

SATISFACTORY PROGRESS UNTIL THE NEXT EVALUATION.

5. SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS FOR STUDENTS WITH EXCUSED ABSENCE AND/OR LEAVE OF ABSENCE:

SAP REPORT DATE WILL BE EXTENDED IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE THE TIME THE STUDENT WAS ABSENT.

THE EXTENSION OF TIME WILL BE THE SAME AS THE APPROVED EXCUSED ABSENCE OR LEAVE OF ABSENCE

PERIOD. STUDENTS RETURNING FROM AN AUTHORIZED EXCUSED ABSENCE WILL RETAIN ALL CREDITS,

CLOCK HOURS AND WORK PROJECTS COMPLETED AS WELL AS SAP EVALUATIONS DONE PREVIOUSLY.

STUDENTS WHO RE-ENTER THE PROGRAM WITHIN 24 MONTHS OF WITHDRAWAL DATE WILL NOT LOSE

ANY PREVIOUS CREDITS OR STATE BOARD HOURS OR ANY SAP REPORTS (SEE RE-ENTRY POLICY PG. 29).

35

SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS

EVALUATION PERIODS

STUDENTS’ COMPLIANCE WITH THE SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS IS DIVIDED INTO EVALUATION

PERIODS AND IS ASSESSED AT EACH OF THE FOLLOWING TIMES:

• THE POINT AT WHICH 25% OF THE COURSE IS SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETED;




• THE POINT OF ACTUAL COMPLETION, OR AT WHICH EACH ADDITIONAL 409 CLOCK HOURS ARE

SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETED, BEYOND GRADUATION DATE.

EXAMPLE: FOR THE 1600 CLOCK HOUR COSMETOLOGY COURSE, A STUDENT WILL BE EVALUATED AT THE

INCREMENTS IN WHICH THE STUDENTS IS SCHEDULED TO REACH 400,800,1200, AND 1440 CLOCK HOURS,

IF APPLICABLE AT THE POINT OF WHICH THE STUDENT IS SCHEDULED TO REACH AN ADDITIONAL 500

CLOCK HOURS BEYOND SCHEDULED COMPLETION, OR AT ACTUAL COMPLETION.

EXAMPLE: FOR THE 600 CLOCK HOUR ESTHETICIAN COURSE, A STUDENT WILL BE EVALUATED AT THE

INCREMENTS AT WHICH THE STUDENT IS SCHEDULED TO REACH 150, 300, 450, AND 540 CLOCK HOURS.

EXAMPLE FOR THE 400 CLOCK HOUR MANICURISTS COURSE A STUDENT WILL BE EVALUATED AT THE

INCREMENTS AT WHICH THE STUDENT IS SCHEDULE TO REACH 100, 200, 300 AND 360 CLOCK HOURS.

SPECIAL NOTE: THE PERCENTAGE OF THE COURSE SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETED IS DEFINED ACCORDING

TO THE TERMS OF THE ENROLLMENT AGREEMENT. EXAMPLE: A STUDENT ENROLLED AT 100 HOURS PER

MONTH WOULD BE SCHEDULED TO COMPLETE A 600 HOUR COURSE IN 6 MONTHS, A 400 HOUR COURSE

IN 4 MONTHS AND A 1600 HOURS COURSE IN 16 MONTHS, ALLOWING NO ABSENCES.

FOR EXAMPLE A STUDENT ENROLLED IN A 40 WEEK, 1600 CLOCK HOUR PROGRAM WOULD BE EVALUATED

FOR SAP AFTER THE 10TH WEEK; THE 20TH WEEK; THE 30TH WEEK AND THE 36TH WEEK. THESE DATES

WOULD CORRESPOND TO THE POINT AT WHICH THE STUDENT WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE COMPLETED

400, 800, 1200, AND 1440 CLOCK HOURS

IN THE EVENT A STUDENT REACHES HIS/HER SCHEDULED GRADUATION DATE AND HAS HOURS

REMAINING TO COMPLETE, THE STUDENT WILL RECEIVE ADDITIONAL EVALUATIONS; EITHER AT THE TIME

THE STUDENT IS SCHEDULED TO REACH EACH ADDITIONAL 400 CLOCK HOURS, OR AT THE TIME OF

ACTUAL COMPLETION OF THE REMAINING HOURS, WHICHEVER OCCURS FIRST.

36

STUDENT’S RIGHT TO CANCEL

CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICIES

Cancellation of Agreement:

You have the right to cancel this agreement for a course of instruction offered in this agreement, without

any penalty or obligation, if notice of cancellation is made prior to or until midnight of the first day of class,

or the seventh day after enrollment, whichever is later. Students who withdraw after the cancellation

period, up until 60% of the course completion, are entitled to a pro rata refund of tuition. . Cancellation

shall occur when you give written notice of cancellation at the address of the School, 3834 Main Street

Culver City, CA 90232, and to the attention of the School Director. Your notice of cancellation can be by

mail, electronic mail, hand delivery, or facsimile. The written notice of cancellation, if sent by mail, is

effective when deposited in the mail properly addressed with postage prepaid. The written notice of

cancellation need not take any particular form and, however expressed, it is effective if it shows that you

no longer wish to be bound by this Agreement. If you cancel prior to or on the first day of class, or the

seventh day after enrollment, which is later, your refund shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the amount

paid for institutional charges, less registration fee not to exceed seventy five dollars ($75), and less any kit

supplies such as brooks, material and equipment issued and accepted by you. Note: Kit supplies are not

returnable due to sanitary reasons. Therefore, once you accepted the kit supplies, the cost will be charged

to your account. If you cancel this Agreement, The School will refund any money paid by you, less

registration fee, kit supplies costs, and STRF (Student Tuition Recovery Fund) within 45 days after notice of

cancellation is received by the School.

If you have received federal student financial aid funds, you are entitled to a refund of moneys not paid

from federal student financial aid program funds.

If you obtained a loan to pay for an educational program, you will have the responsibility to repay the full

amount of the loan plus interest, less the amount of any refund.

Withdrawal from course:

You have the right to withdraw for the course of instruction any time. If you withdraw for the course of

instruction after the period allowed for cancellation of the agreement, which is until midnight of the first

day of class, the School will remit a refund for the unused portion of the tuition fee less registration fee, not

to exceed seventy five dollars ($75), and less kit supplies issued to you. Students who withdraw after the

cancellation period, up until sixty percent (60%) of course completion are entitled to a pro rata refund of

tuition. The refund shall be calculated as follows:

(1) Deduct a registration fee not to exceed seventy five dollars ($75) from the total tuition charge.

(2) Deduct kit supplies fee issued to student from this figure. Kit supplies fee shall not exceed the kit

supplies fee stated in this Agreement.

(3) Divide this figure ( net registration and kit fees) by the number of hours in the program

(4) The quotient in the hourly charge for the program.

(5) The amount owed by the student for the purposes of calculating a refund is delivered by multiplying

the total hours expected to have reached according to Class Schedule commitment specified on

page 1 of the Enrollment Agreement by the hourly charge of instruction plus the amount of

registration and kit fee, plus any penalty fees for unexcused absences (if applicable).

(6) The refund shall be any amount in excess of the figured delivered in the paragraph (5) that was paid

by the student.

If a refund is owed to the student then the amount of the refund shall be made within 45 days after

notice of withdrawal is received by the School.

Buyer’s Right to Cancel – Cancellation & Refund – page 2

Hypothetical example of a refund calculation:

Assume that a student enrolls in a 1600 hours course and pays $ 8,200.00 for tuition, $ 75.00 for

registration and $ 700.00 for equipment as specified in the enrollment agreement and withdraws

after completing 600 hours with a perfect attendance record. The pro rata refund would be based

on the calculation stated below:

Total amount paid to School by the student $ 8,975.00

1/ (-) less registration fee --$ 75.00

2/ (-) less equipment/kit fee --$ 700.00

3/ Amount of tuition $ 8,200.00

Divide by the number of hours in the program 1,600

4/ Hourly charge for the program $ 5.125

5/ Amount owed to School by the student:

Tuition ($5.125x600) + registration + Equip/kit $ 3,850.00

6/ Amount of Pro rata refund to student:

Total amount paid by student $ 8,975.00

Total amount owed to School $ 3,850.00

Prorate amount refund $ 5,125.00

STUDENT TUITION RECOVERY FUNDS STATEMENTS

STATE OF CALIFORNIA

STUDENT TUITION RECOVERY FUND

“The State of California established the Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) to relieve or mitigate economic loss

suffered by a student in an educational program at a qualifying institution, who is or was a California resident while

enrolled, or was enrolled in a residency program, if the student enrolled in the institution, prepaid tuition, and

suffered an economic loss. Unless relieved of the obligation to do so, you must pay the state-imposed assessment

for the STRF, or it must be paid on your behalf, if you are a student in an educational program, who is a California

resident, or are enrolled in a residency program, and prepay all or part of your tuition.

You are not eligible for protection from the STRF and you are not required to pay the STRF assessment, if you are

not a California resident, or are not enrolled in a residency program.”

“It is important that you keep copies of your enrollment agreement, financial aid documents, receipts, or any other

information that documents the amount paid to the school. Questions regarding the STRF may be directed to the

Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education, 1747 N. Market Blvd. Ste 225, Sacramento, CA 95834, (916) 574-8900

or (888) 370-7589.

To be eligible for STRF, you must be a California resident or are enrolled in a residency program, prepaid tuition, paid

or deemed to have paid the STRF assessment, and suffered an economic loss as a result of any of the following:

1. The institution, a location of the institution, or an educational program offered by the institution was closed or

discontinued, and you did not choose to participate in a teach-out plan approved by the Bureau or did not complete

a chosen teach-out plan approved by the Bureau.

2. You were enrolled at an institution or a location of the institution within the 120 day period before the closure of

the institution or location of the institution, or were enrolled in an educational program within the 120 day period

before the program was discontinued.

3. You were enrolled at an institution or a location of the institution more than 120 days before the closure of the

institution or location of the institution, in an educational program offered by the institution as to which the Bureau

determined there was a significant decline in the quality or value of the program more than 120 days before closure.

4. The institution has been ordered to pay a refund by the Bureau but has failed to do so.

5. The institution has failed to pay or reimburse loan proceeds under a federal student loan program as required by

law, or has failed to pay or reimburse proceeds received by the institution in excess of tuition and other costs.

6. You have been awarded restitution, a refund, or other monetary award by an arbitrator or court, based on a

violation of this chapter by an institution or representative of an institution, but have been unable to collect the

award from the institution.

7. You sought legal counsel that resulted in the cancellation of one or more of your student loans and have an invoice

for services rendered and evidence of the cancellation of the student loan or loans.

To qualify for STRF reimbursement, the application must be received within four (4) years from the date of the action

or event that made the student eligible for recovery from STRF.

A student whose loan is revived by a loan holder or debt collector after a period of noncollection may, at any time,

file a written application for recovery from STRF for the debt that would have otherwise been eligible for recovery.

If it has been more than four (4) years since the action or event that made the student eligible, the student must

have filed a written application for recovery within the original four (4) year period, unless the period has been

extended by another act of law.

However, no claim can be paid to any student without a social security number or a taxpayer identification number.”
